Southern Utah University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Victoria

I wish I would have known that there are more scholarships available, and I wish I would have known it was one of the most expensive schools in Utah.

Caitlin

I wish I had known more about the possible career paths available at the Southern Utah before I started attending. I had been a gymnast my entire life so I studied what I knew; exercise. I think if I would have known more about the possible career paths then I would have made a more educational decision as too which major I chose.

Where the best place to live is.

Sosaia

I wish I had known that Southern Utah University is a melting pod for non-traditional students. Being a non-traditional student myself,I just got lucky and applied to the right University.

Taran

I wish I knew about the print center inside the library before I came to this school because I had no idea I needed to pay for printing papers, and I had no idea how to pay for them. When I needed to print documents and arcticles for my English portfolio, I went to the library to print them but I didn't know I needed to pay for printing papers from the library. I didn't even know where the papers were printing from or if they even printed at all.

Jamie

I wish I'd been told how much online (Canvas) work there is, which I personally can't stand. But I guess it's unavoidable.

Ashley

i wish i had known a lot more on how to go out and find some financial help. I also wished I would have known how very little the school helps students who are doing very well in school academically, but yet don't help them financially. I wish I also would have known how there tuition increases would have severely hurt me throughout the years of my college education.

Why is our mascot named Thor? You figure it out eventually just being there, I mean we are the Thunderbirds. There's nothing you really need to know before coming to SUU because if you don't know it there's always someone there to help you figure it out whether its your classmates or your professors.

Taylor

Well, to be honest, there's not really much I can think of. I knew pretty much everything I needed to before I went. However, I do wish I would have asked already attending students about the teachers there. I ended up with good teachers, luckily, but I'd rather not leave it up to luck, but rather research and preparedness. I'd say, find out about the teachers before you sign up for classes to make sure you get the best education possible.

Anna

What degrees were offered and how long each took to finish, roughly. Also, what career possibilities there are with certain degrees.
